Lake County Historical Society, over the objections of many of Lake County's citizens and taxpayers who pay for its existence and maintenance continues, largely through the efforts of its president and curator Bobby Grenier, to plan for the importation and installation of a five thousand pound, nine foot tall statue of a Confederate general, General Edmund Kirby Smith, who, by the way, never set foot in and has no connection to Lake County, Florida! This white elephant has been removed from the National Statuary Hall in Washington, D. C. , as have many similar statues and/or monuments throughout the country, in an effort to no longer memorialize the institution of slavery in our country and the war that was fought to eradicate it. It is inappropriate and has no place in Lake County. The very name of Lake County Historical Society defines its mandate to display and memorialize the history of Lake County, Florida. There is plenty of it if you only look. Ironically, the statue that replaced the unfortunate General Smith in the National Statuary Hall was Florida's own Mary McLeod Bethune, founder of Bethune-Cookman University in Daytona Beach!
I deplore those who wish to erase history from the minds of the citizenry by everything from burning books to tearing down statutes of historical figures in our country's history. Thank you Lake County historical society for not bending to the whims of those latte liberals that now seek to erase from history the fact that there was a civil war and that Florida had a general born in Jacksonville who served the Confederacy of which Florida was a part thereof.
